Coming up at council meetings
What the councils' meetings in the next 45 days are being asked to decide, in each report's own words. This is the moment to act: once a meeting has decided, it is much harder to change.
These are recommendations, not decisions. Each line quotes what a report asks the meeting to do. The meeting can agree, change or reject it; what it decided is in the minutes, and on Decisions once they are published. Papers are usually published about a week before a meeting. To speak at a meeting or ask a question, the council's meeting page explains how.
